Scaling multinomial logistic regression to datasets with very large number of data points and classes is challenging. This is primarily because one needs to compute the log-partition function on every data point. This makes distributing the…

Scientists increasingly rely on Python tools to perform scalable distributed memory array operations using rich, NumPy-like expressions. However, many of these tools rely on dynamic schedulers optimized for abstract task graphs, which often…

Existing Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) approaches are limited in their scalability due to growing map size in long-term robot operation. Moreover, processing such maps for localization and planning tasks leads to the…

In present day technology, storing and processing of information occur on physically distinct regions of space. Not only does this result in space limitations; it also translates into unwanted delays in retrieving and processing of relevant…

Growing demand for sustainable logistics and higher space utilization, driven by e-commerce and urbanization, increases the need for storage systems that are both energy- and space-efficient. Compact storage systems aim to maximize space…

Electrochemical energy storage (ES) units (e.g. batteries) have been field-validated as an efficient back-up resource that enhance resilience of the distribution system in case of natural disasters. However, using these units for resilience…

A content-addressable-memory compares an input search word against all rows of stored words in an array in a highly parallel manner. While supplying a very powerful functionality for many applications in pattern matching and search, it…

Digital Memcomputing machines (DMMs) are dynamical systems with memory (time non-locality) that have been designed to solve combinatorial optimization problems. Their corresponding ordinary differential equations depend on a few…

Range queries over multidimensional data are an important part of database workloads in many applications. Their execution may be accelerated by using multidimensional index structures (MDIS), such as kd-trees or R-trees. As for most index…

Storing digital information, ensuring the accuracy, steady and uninterrupted access to the data are considered as fundamental challenges in enterprise-class organizations and companies. In recent years, new types of storage systems such as…

This work examines the secrecy outage probability (SOP) in Fluid Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (FRIS) and contrasts their performance against two alternative RIS architectures: a traditional planar RIS and a compact RIS layout. To…

The growing scale of deep learning demands distributed training frameworks that jointly reason about parallelism, memory, and network topology. Prior works often rely on heuristic or topology-agnostic search, handling communication and…

With the widespread use of shared-nothing clusters of servers, there has been a proliferation of distributed object stores that offer high availability, reliability and enhanced performance for MapReduce-style workloads. However, relational…

To deal with the complexity of the new bigger and more complex generation of data, machine learning (ML) techniques are probably the first and foremost used. For ML algorithms to produce results in a reasonable amount of time, they need to…

Hybrid Solid-State Drives (SSDs), which integrate several types of flash cells (e.g., single-level cell (SLC) and multiple-level cell (MLC)) in a single drive and enable them to convert between each other, are designed to deliver both high…

This study focuses on relay transport carriers (RTCs) that contract with hub providers to lease hub capacity and employ relay transportation via hubs. It enables long-haul freight shipments to be transported by multiple short-haul drivers…

Very large volumes of spatial data increasingly become available and demand effective management. While there has been decades of research on spatial data management, few works consider the current state of commodity hardware, having…

In large-scale wireless networks such as mobile ad hoc and sensor networks, efficient and robust service discovery and data-access mechanisms are both essential and challenging. Rendezvous-based mechanisms provide a valuable solution for…

There is a set of rectangular macros with given dimensions, and there are wires connecting some pairs (or sets) of them. We have a placement area where these macros should be placed without overlaps in order to minimize the total length of…

This paper describes a non-homogeneous distributed storage systems (DSS), where there is one super node which has a larger storage size and higher reliability and availability than the other storage nodes. We propose three distributed…
